Warm the eaves, claim the walls.

Skirting Board Heating for Loft Conversions

ThermaSkirt is the perfect low-mass heating solution for attic and loft conversions. While standard radiators consume your only full-height wall space, ThermaSkirt installs directly along the difficult 1.2m-high 'knee walls' and awkward sloped dormers, delivering swift radiant heat across the room.

Zero Load on the Joists

Installing wet underfloor heating in a loft conversion is often structurally impossible. Pouring heavy concrete screed over the old ceiling joists requires extensive and expensive steelwork reinforcement from a structural engineer. Even lightweight UFH spreader plates significantly raise the floor height, diminishing your crucial floor-to-ceiling headroom.

ThermaSkirt avoids the floor entirely. It mounts to the studded perimeter walls acting exactly like a traditional skirting board. It connects straight onto the rising 15mm copper pipes connected to your existing boiler circuit, introducing negligible water volume (less than 1 litre per typical room) and virtually zero structural weight to the upper floor.

Stop Wasting Dormer Space

In a typical loft space, you only have one or two full-height vertical partition walls. If you mount a large double-panel radiator on that wall, you immediately block the only place capable of housing your wardrobe, your television, or your double bed's headboard.

ThermaSkirt solves the geometry puzzle of the loft. The aluminium profile easily circumvents the room, neatly framing skylights, dormer windows, and the short sloping eaves (knee walls). By shifting the heat delivery outwards to the dead perimeter space, you instantly reclaim the primary vertical walls for furniture.
